You can still get bulbs for your 18 inch lamp. Ott-Lite has discontinued the original bulbs, but there is an upgrade that replaces the old bulbs. When I first saw this post I checked out the availability of my bulbs! I have an Easel Clamp-On 13 inch True Color lamp. They no longer make the True Color bulbs, the upgrade is called 
High Definition". With that being said, LemenLight, http://www.lumenlight.com/bulbsandtubes.html does still sell the True Color bulbs, as well as Amazon.com. You may want to consider a brand new assembly.

I believe that the Ott-Lite was/is a great option for viewing prints for less than $200. A "Viewing Cabinet" will cost much more and may take up more space. But they are readily available digital photo outlets like Calumet Photo, https://www.calumetphoto.com/item/GX1105/.
